Following U.S. airstrikes against Yemen's Houthi rebels, Iran firmly denied any involvement in aiding the group. The strikes, which reportedly killed 31 individuals, come as tensions rise following the Houthis' missile and drone attacks targeting international shipping and Israel. Iranian officials have criticized U.S. actions, claiming they do not dictate Iran's foreign policy and that they have no involvement in the operational strategies of allied militant groups in the region. The backdrop includes a fragile ceasefire in Gaza and renewed threats from the Houthis against Israeli vessels.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi criticized the U.S. airstrikes, asserting that Washington cannot dictate Iran's foreign policy, and urged for an end to the attacks.
General Hossein Salami of Iran's Revolutionary Guard refuted claims that Iran aids the Houthis, insisting that Iran does not influence the militant group's strategies.
